Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Flumazenil prevents the sedative effects of benzodiazepines by competitively binding to benzo-diazepine receptors. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist used to facilitate opioid withdrawal. Fen-tanyl is a synthetic opioid that is more potent than morphine. Vecuronium is a nondepolarizing paralyzing agent.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
A score of 2-4 on the Ramsay scale indicates adequate sedation.
